None Like Joshua
2nd Flight (Ft. Veela)
[Intro]
"Ay, Foxtrot, do you copy?
Yeah, it's just as we thought
Under the farmhouses
Are bombs, we've never seen before
And they're armed
Same as all they're getting nauseous
And they don't know how
And we're convinced that
These are the cause
They're radiating gamma rays above"
[Pre-Chorus]
"There's four of us,"
She said as she turned around
"There's four of us" (Ay)
"And how could we let them down?"
[Chorus]
"'Cause I'm proud of us
We are strong now
Intelligent and we can solve anything
We put our heads to
We're the tightest team
That I've known so
Don't hesitate and
Focus this time"
They put their hands away
Shared a look
Broke into smiles
And lingered for awhile
And took their tools from the pile
[Verse 1]
Standing like a plank she could see around her
Tan sea was devoid of trees and flowers
Dusty and living despite no water
Between lone barns
She joined the rest of them
Careful calculations
Dirt walls above them
Trying to find the cause
Shovel hit something
Hard, and his brow furrowed
"Look what I found"
He took his tilly hat off
And handed it to his brother
Continued staring at the orb
And gave the spade to another
Sick aluminum glow
Counting down foreign numbers
"Who put this in the ground?"
[Bridge]
She put her hand on his shoulder
And took a look back to the other two
"This time we make our own orders
I think we all know what we have to do"
She leaned back
And shrugged at the plane
Pointed at the bomb and then at the air (The air, air, air, oh, ayy)
[Pre-Chorus]
"The four of us
Let's take 'em all out of the ground
And then fly them up
And let our bodies sparkle down"
[Chorus]
"'Cause I'm proud of us
We are strong now
Intelligent and we can solve anything
We put our heads to
We're the tightest team
That I've known so
Don't hesitate and
Focus this time"
They put their hands away
Shared a look
Broke into smiles
And lingered for awhile
And took their tools from the pile
[Verse 2]
Twenty in a bag high
They laughed and thought of their lives
Rembembering the good times
There's truth in what you said (Hey baby)
Yeah there's truth in what you said
There's truth in what you said (Hey baby)
There's truth in what you said
There's light in what you said (Hey baby)
Yeah there's light in what you said
There's light in what you said (Hey baby)
Yeah there's light in what you said
[Outro]
"You know that I love you boys
You've each done me really proud"
They held their hands, eight eyes closed
And took a last look at the clouds
